Oh that is just wrong. If I had any innocence left, it's just been shattered.

Man, Disney's getting edgy with their viral marketing for new movies.

Can someone tell me why this is happening?

Gawd, this is worse than I could have imagined.

From the very bottom of the page:

Today anybody with the right skills can create something quite impressive. For SCORE, our nerd boy shot these tutorials with a RED camera, After Effects, a Mac, and a couple crappy bicycle helmets. And it looks sick.

In other words... "We're playing with our toys. Do you like?"

My first... encounter... was cassette driven, all by myself. But then I had the opportunity to use my 8" floppy on a hot little mini.

Yeah yeah, sex and stuff, but this:

"Thirty-three years ago, ILM and Lucas used a ton of mainframe hardware to crunch and render the masterpieces of the Star Wars series."

Is just wrong. Like as in incorrect. Ruins it for me.

I would have never guessed that two things I love, sex and Tron, could, in combination, make me so disgusted.

Please be aware that is unwise to simply jump into an advanced physical activity like this without proper stretching and warming up first. Star Wars Yoga, for example, is an excellent way to prepare for these demanding techniques.

Wow, who thought this would work well enough to make 20 fucking episodes? The technical language is too simplistic to amuse in and of itself, and without that it's just two people dressed up like tronguy dry-humping for 3 minutes.
